ComMANdment 2:
The inner spiritual way of MAN is undefinable and varied.
Why? A MAN, like a woMAN, is an explorer and an active participant in life. Everyone has purposes. Intentions. Mind and spirit (imagination and outlook) works to serve whatever those purposes and intentions are.
ComMANdment 3:
Thou shalt not wear high heel shoes unless you have a "Chevy Chase" coverage provisioned in your health insurance plan.
ComMANdment 4:
A MAN should learn to cook for himself and for others.
And use SAFESERV protocols while in the process.
ComMANdment 4a:
You cook...always take pleasure in cleaning up utensils, dishes, table,
and taking the trash out. It isn't difficult if you have a plan. And especially, if you make one pot meals.
ComMANdment 5:
A MAN should always hold high regard for himself, his fellow MAN and woMAN.
Another MANifestation of the golden rule.
ComMANdment 6:
A MAN should always have a sense of humor but never at the expense of others.
ComMANdment 7:
A MAN should always express himself.
Why? How else is anyone going to know who you are as a person if you don't express yourself.
ComMANdment 8:
A MAN should improvise when the routine no longer serves him.
ComMANdment 9:
A MAN assumes responsibility for his actions/inactions.
ComMANdment 10:
A MAN should be a focused JACK-OF-ALL-TRADES guy in a respects to his life.
ComMANdment 11:
Act and be satisfied. When the well is dry, MAN can get into stupid and
sometimes serious situations when unsatisfied with life.
ComMANdment 12:
If you learn to create love for yourself, you will not depend on it from anyone else.
Why? A man cannot break his own heart.
ComMANdment 13:
Never allow another MAN to dictate what is MANly or masculine. Every man has to define it and tweak it for themselves.
Why? Every man cannot possibly BE anyone else's ideal of a MAN. Because a person is not your ideal of what is a MAN, doesn't make them NOT men. It makes them different...but a MAN still.
ComMANdment 14:
Never play into any MAN's "rites of passage"...even for family.
Life is its own rites of passage.
